That's the way partitioning works hda1 is the first primary partition. hda5 would be the first logical drive in the extended partition (most likely hda4). If you would like to check the partitioning yourself in a console sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda.

The command would be as you state home=scan, home=/dev/hda1(5) or home=/mnt/hda1(5) depending on your choice of partition.
